Broken to Beautiful; Take a Break From Alcohol and Grow Closer to God, Transform Your Body and Mind, and Uncover Your True Life Purpose

Hi Friend!  I recently had one of those days where one thing after another seemed to go wrong, I was dragging all day, and was just in a funk!  Can you relate?  I thought it might be helpful to share this with you because we all have days like this.  I think it's important to let ourselves off the hook for a day to process everything, but I realized I needed to make a point to not let it drag on f...

Hello Friend!  Happy Monday!  I hope you had an amazing weekend and allowed yourself to be in the moment and just take in all of God's beauty and magnificence!  Our verse this week is Romans 15:13, "May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."  I want you to overflow with hope this week, so please join...

Hi Friend!  I hope you're having a great week so far.  I wanted to share more of Max Lucado's amazing book entitled, "Grace" with you today. I'm not sure if you've ever questioned if you are really saved but I know I have.  No matter how hard I try, I continue to make mistakes over and over again...  I promise after listening today you will have the reassurance you need.  I hope this blesses you a...

Hello Friend!  Today I wanted to share a few excerpts out of Chapter 10 of Max Lucado's book, "Grace, More Than We Deserve Greater Than We Imagine."  After I read this chapter I felt so special, loved, and accepted for who I am and couldn't wait to share this with you because I want you to feel that same way too!   I encourage you to purchase this book for yourself! I promise you won't regret it! ...

Hi Friend!  Happy Monday!  I hope and pray that you woke up this morning filled with excitement for the new week ahead.  This week's verse of the week is Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight."  I know this is easier said than done, putting our trust in the Lord, but there...

Hi Friend!  I recently ran across a post on Facebook that was just too good not to share.  It reminded me that we all have the ability to impact others in a huge way if only we are willing to put ourselves in their shoes, even for a moment.  I hope this message inspires you to be the light someone needs this weekend.  God bless!   We would love you to join our Facebook group for additional support...

Hi Friend!  I wanted to share a special message with you today that is actually based off of my pastor's most recent message.  It is in perfect alignment with our verse of the week and I thought it would be so helpful to share as we all struggle with silencing those negative thoughts!     Here is a link to Pastor Craig's original message: https://www.podbean.com/ei/dir-bx9zb-1522eef5   We would lo...

Hi Friend!  Happy Monday!  This week's verse of the week is Philippians 4:8, "And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing.  Fix your thoughts on what is true, and honorable, and right, and pure, and lovely, and admirable.  Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise."  I know I've mentioned this before, but it is so important to fix our thoughts on THESE things and not the t...

Hi Friend!  Today's episode has been on my heart for quite some time.  I know we all have a past and we feel weighted down by our mistakes and circumstances.  Sometimes it's so overwhelming that it feels impossible to move forward, right?  Well please join me because I want to share with you one simple step you can take right now to find immediate relief!  I am praying you find comfort in this mes...

Hello Friend!  Happy Monday!!  I pray your day is off to a great start!  This week's verse of the week is:  1 Corinthians 10:31, "So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the Glory of God."  I think this is such a powerful reminder that even if we might not always enjoy our work, or what we are eating, or all the circumstances in our world right now, we can still go into every...

Hi friend!  In today's episode, I share with you my thoughts on a recent message my pastor did.  It really resonated with me and I just have this feeling that YOU need to hear this message of hope and reassurance as much as I did.  Our Father in heaven is always just a prayer away and HE is there to comfort you and give you the strength you need.  You are never alone!   I'm listening to Life. Chur...

Hi Friend!  Happy Monday!  I hope you had a wonderful weekend.  This week I wanted to share a short prayer with you instead of a verse.  We will meditate on it just as we would the verse though.  Even though this prayer is short and simple, it is also extremely powerful, and if we really take the time recite this several times throughout the day, I believe it will make such a profound difference i...

Hi friends!  I recorded this episode on Monday, which was my birthday, because it hit me on my morning walk that my Grandma's birthday would be tomorrow...  This is the first birthday since she passed in March and it stirred up a lot of emotions in me.  I share in this episode what I did to allow myself to feel that emotion.  I encourage you to listen and possibly take some time to also let yourse...

Hi Friends!  I don't know about you, but lately I've been feeling overwhelmed, scattered and like there are never enough hours in the day to get everything done!  Can you relate?  Well I might have a solution for you.  Now... this can take some time initially, but once you sit down and do some planning as I'll explain, it will make life so much easier.  Sometimes it just takes being a bit more int...

Hello friends!  Happy Monday!  This week's verse is going to be Romans 12:2, "Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is.  His good pleasing and perfect will."  I think it's so important for us to remember we have to control what goes into our minds.  It is so easy to conform to this wo...

Hello Friends!  As you can see, the new podcast is officially live!  I hope you'll join me today as I share my journey from "Keto for Christ" to "Progress NOT Perfection."  I was recently reminded what it means to truly receive and experience God's grace and I think it's something we all might forget from time to time.  Hopefully after listening to this, your passion for life will be reignited as...

Hello friends!  Happy MONDAY!!!  This week's verse is going to be Psalms 118:24.  I think we all struggle with being in the moment and realizing THIS is the only day we are promised.  I just want to encourage us all to remember to come back to the moment as often as we can.  The past is gone, the future has not yet arrived.  I hope this verse blesses you as it does me.  Have a beautiful day!   Sta...

Happy Monday!  I wanted to share a verse with you to meditate on as we start a new week.  I hope and pray this blesses you.  No matter what you are facing, God will give you peace if you put your trust in Him.   "The peace of God, which passes all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus."  Philippians 4:7   I would love to hear from you!  Please email me at healthcoach...

Hello friend!  Today I wanted to share a series of things that happened last Sunday that gave me even further clarification that I'm on the right track with the new direction of this podcast.  It isn't completely flushed out yet, but I think I'm getting closer and I have an important reminder for you.  Your past does NOT define you.  You are not your past and God wants to use you in a special and...

Hi friends!  As you know, I have been trying to figure out the new direction of the podcast and I think I am getting closer!  I recorded this episode last Friday, but wanted to pray over it a few days before releasing it.  Even though health and taking care of our bodies is very important, I think there are more areas we could also work on improving in order to become the the person God created us...

Happy Friday!  I was reading my devotions this morning and felt this overwhelming need to share with you what I read in Psalm 18.  No matter what you are facing my dear friend, please know that you are NEVER alone.  God is just a prayer away and HE will be your strength and your rock.  You don't have to take life on by yourself.  I hope this blesses you as it did me.  

Happy Valentine's Day!  I recorded this episode earlier this year, but wanted to wait until Valentine's Day to release it, since it is so fitting.  I truly hope this message blesses you as much as I did me.  I share an excerpt from "Cherish" by Gary Thomas and highly recommend you purchase and read the full book.  It is one of my absolute favorites on marriage.  If you have found yourself being a...
